Innovative protection for your
business-critical applications
Web application attacks are on the rise, accounting for 43% of data breach origins in the last year. In an environment where web applications act as the “front door” between your organization and your clients, it is more important than ever to ensure that your web-based assets are protected as if they were your network perimeter.
Ascend’s Web Application Firewall (WAF) service protects your web apps and APIs against everything from common attacks to zero-day exploits.
